In principal it's a good idea, but their first mistake is to try to get into one of Manhattan's swankiest restaurants without a reservation. Their second is far more serious: they bluff their way in, pretending to be a couple who have failed to show up for their table. Unfortunately for the Fosters, the absent diners have serious gangland connections. Even more unfortunately, the people whose identities they've adopted are due to be silenced forever by hitmen. Cue a tightly plotted, gag-packed, headlong flight for survival, which has distinct echoes of 40s screwball classics. And keep an eye out for memorable cameos from Mark Wahlberg and James Franco.

Originating as one of the spoof trailers in the Canadian release of the Tarantino/Rodriguez Grindhouse project, Jason Eisener's exuberantly blood-drenched directorial debut gives Bladerunner star Rutger Hauer a gun and a motive and lets him murderously loose on a town full of bad men. As the unnamed vagrant of the film's title meanders his way across the country, he wanders in to the encouragingly named Hope Town. Sadly, this turns out to be a misnomer, the place being essentially the fiefdom of a viciously criminal family, corrupt officials and other such malefactors. And, as he witnesses injustice pile upon felonious injustice, he snaps, takes up that twelve-bore and, with the gleeful insanity of the righteous vigilante, dishes out inventively gore-splattered retribution on the various factions who have been making the residents' lives a living hell.

17 Again (Film) Film icon 3 star rating 12 certificate
Burr Steers' teen body-swap comedy stars Zac Efron and Matthew Perry in the dual lead role. In 1989, high school student Mike O'Donnell's hopes of a great basketball career were put on hold when his girlfriend Scarlett fell pregnant and he did the right thing by her. Now, the adult O'Donnell is down on his luck: he's lost his job, separated from Scarlett, lost his kids' love, and ends up moving in with his best friend, Ned. On a nostalgic trip back to his old school, O'Donnell bumps into a mysterious caretaker and admits that he wishes he could have a second chance at his life. Well, it's not long before O'Donnell's body has magically reverted to his 17-year-old self, though temporally he's still in 2009: he got his wish, sort of. Next comes the tricky stuff: finding a cover story and getting enrolled in his old school; dealing with the sexual mores of 21st-century teens - in particular, those of his own daughter; and, perhaps, fixing his relationship with Scarlett.

Directed by Mike Newell, this star-studded ensemble cast examines the roles of women in the early 1950s. Julia Roberts is Katherine Watson, a free-spirited first-year teacher from California, who moves east to take up a prestigious job teaching art history at Wellesley College. When she arrives, she is shocked to find that nearly all of her intelligent, talented and privileged students have no particular ambitions after college beyond finding Mr Right and settling into a life of domesticity. She challenges her pupils to consider striving for more, but will any of the students, including Kirsten Dunst, Julia Stiles, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Ginnifer Goodwin, decide to follow a path less taken, and live up to the potential Katherine sees in them?

Date Night (Film) Film icon 3 star rating 15 certificate
Tina Fey and Steve Carell star in Shawn Levy's chase comedy. Phil and Claire Foster feel their marriage has gone a bit stale and decide to pep it up by going out on a date, just like they used to do, before the kids and the mortgage and rest of life's inevitable distractions got in the way. In principal it's a good idea, but their first mistake is to try to get into one of Manhattan's swankiest restaurants without a reservation. Their second is far more serious: they bluff their way in, pretending to be a couple who have failed to show up for their table. Unfortunately for the Fosters, the absent diners have serious gangland connections. Even more unfortunately, the people whose identities they've adopted are due to be silenced forever by hitmen. Cue a tightly plotted, gag-packed, headlong flight for survival, which has distinct echoes of 40s screwball classics. And keep an eye out for memorable cameos from Mark Wahlberg and James Franco.

Inglourious Basterds (Film) Film icon 4 star rating 18 certificate
Quentin Tarantino's history-tweaking homage to the war movie sees the director back on exhilarating form. American officer Aldo Raine leads a squad of soldiers into occupied France on a Dirty Dozen-style assassination mission to kill as many Nazis as possible and spread fear through the Third Reich. They become involved in a Jewish resistance fighter's plan to blow up the Parisian premiere of one of Goebbels' propaganda films - an event due to be attended by Hitler himself. Inglourious Basterds features the entertainingly showy performances, encyclopaedic movie references and oodles of self-conscious dialogue that you'd expect from a Tarantino film, as well as a superb turn from Christoph Waltz as a charmingly evil SS colonel. In English, and German, French and Italian with English subtitles.

Undefeated (Film) Film icon 3 star rating 15 certificate
Daniel Lindsay and TJ Martin's gripping, Oscar-winning documentary tracks the fortunes of a Tennessee high school's American Football team - and its white middle-class coach's determined efforts to turn things around for his young, deprived black players. Sadly, the Manassas Tigers' absolute lack of success on the field - they've not won a single game for ten years - gives neither the players nor the school much relief from the hardships that economic depression has visited upon their neighbourhood. The documentary focuses on three of the team's members - OC Brown, whose hopes of making it to college look faint; Montrail 'Money' Brown, who's struggling with injury problems; and Chavis Daniels, who has already fallen disastrously foul of the law - as well as volunteer coach Bill Courtney, whose relatively privileged life away from the field is glimpsed, in addition to his inspiring efforts to galvanise the team and provide a strong role model for the young men in his charge.

The true story of the only German prisoner of war captured in Britain who managed to escape and get back to Germany. Roy Baker's film gave German actor Hardy Kruger his first role in a British film as Oberleutnant Franz von Werra of the Luftwaffe, captured when he crashed his Messerschmitt in 1940. Taken before an interrogating officer, he bet a magnum of champagne against ten cigarettes that he would escape in six months and made two audacious attempts to get away, succeeding at the third, when, as part of a group of prisoners being transferred to Canada, he fled from a train and crossed the St Lawrence River into the then neutral United States. The real von Werra eventually reached Germany, returned to flying, and was credited with downing eight more planes before being killed in action.
